Salts of riboflavin 5'-phosphate which are obtained by phosphorylation of riboflavin and reaction of the resulting riboflavin 5'-phosphate (5'-FMN), contaminated with unconverted riboflavin and isomeric riboflavin monophosphates and diphosphates, with an alkali metal hydroxide or a nitrogen base are purified by a process in which (a) a roughly 1-15% strength by weight homogeneous, clear, aqueous 5'-FMN salt solution having a pH of from 4 to 7 is prepared from the crude 5'-FMN obtained in the phosphorylation, water and the alkali metal hydroxide or the nitrogen base, preferably sodium hydroxide solution, if necessary with heating at from 30 DEG to 100 DEG C., (b) the resulting solution is treated with a suitable polymeric adsorber resin and (c) the 5'-FMN salt substantially freed from unconverted riboflavin is isolated from the resulting solution and, if desired, the solution is fed to a subsequent fine purification. Treatment with the suitable polymeric adsorber resin is advantageously carried out in a column filled with adsorber resin. The subsequent fine purification can be effected by evaporative crystallization or by chromatographing a 5'-FMN solution, containing from 1 to 15% by weight of dry substance, in water or in a mixture of water and a lower aliphatic alcohol, having a pH of from 4 to 7, in a minimum amount of from 5 to 50% of the bed volume of the column over RP silica gel derivatized with alkyl groups, using water, or a mixture of water and a lower aliphatic alcohol, as the eluant. Preparative chromatography of 5'-FMN salts over derivatized RP silica gel using water, or a mixture of water and a lower aliphatic alcohol, as the solvent and eluant is also claimed independently of pretreatment with the suitable adsorber resin.
